We are going to work on perseverance as well as math, science and history with Rubik's cubes. Your kiddo may have brought their cube home to try the algorithms out in order to solve it.
We started our day with some dyslexia and learning difference simulations using the laptops. We wanted to "walk in Ally's shoes" and show compassion and empathy for what she's going through. Next, we read, The Day You Begin by Jacqueline Woodson, about being different yet similar in ways before catching up with Fish In a Tree. We also discussed how we want our Any Book Book Clubs to look and decided if we were going to be reading fiction or non-fiction. We even took some time to begin narrative writing by discussing seeds and small moments as well as writing down or drawing seeds that we have. We switched for science and math (scmath as we are calling it) and continued our work in our respective classrooms. 4th graders took their unit 1 post test today. After lunch and recess, we walked over and took some pictures around the Hilliard Tharp sign since a lot of us were wearing our shirts today.
Do you ever wonder what a school day in the life of your child looks like? Are you frustrated with the shoulder shrug you receive when asking about their day? Well, wonder no more! Read my daily blog so that you can ask more detailed questions and know more about your child's school life!
